Show TOE MOUXINO EXAMINER. 0- - SCRATCH THE SINS OF ETIQUETTE By one "Rill." 1 the foolish aud iujiin-cer- e science of ceremony. From a mere conventional form it Etiquette ha degenerated lino tyranny. From merely regulating a code of behavior, or a law of precedence, it has usurped the government of professions aud more or less the ruler and the e taskmaster of social life. Naturally etiquette has certain advantages to clUtincuish its place iu the economy f thing. Jut as the wearing of wigs give dignity to legal officials, or lhe surplice and hood and lawn sleeves of Ilia clergy represent grades of office or academical honors. Rut, like many other rules for regulating human conduct under varying an conditions, etiquette has become abuse of power, Instead of remaining its regulator. It ha usured one office after another with the greed of a place-serveIt lias robbed truth of its meaning, dignity of iui woilh. and arjustiee of its once clear rules of mabitration. The whole complicated chinery of the law has arrived at Us present unsatisfactory condition by means of this tyrant. It has become imposslbls for two rational persons to arrange a difference, Hettli! bargain, undertake or complete a purchase without legal advice. And legal advice must always run in double harness. THE FRAIi'D OF THE LAW. It would not be etiquette fur a lawyer to arrange matters with the other . party concerned in his client's He can only do it with the said 'other party's" legsl adviser. Thu a Simple matter resting on Individual faith or honor becomes surrounded with difficulties, hedged by suggestion. sharp set with obstacles. It is furthermore involved by contingencies, and usually ends In ruinous expense, legal fees and general animosity. Of all the gigantic frauds of rivilixaliuu, lhe law is perhaps the most appalling. No sane mind can contemplate it work without a feeling of absolute hopelessness. The process of making wrong seem right, and truth a lie, or .vice versa, is essentially the grand achievement of legal equity. The old story of the lawyer who set up In a country town and nearly starved Ibr want of work until good fortuno sent a second lawyer to the same place holds good as an examplo of professional utility. It also enforces the right and Just observance of legal etiquette, which makes silk superior to stuff," and ermino lo silk, and regurolls lates the number of horse-hai- r in a chancellor's wig. and would make the loss or multiplication of one such roll a criminal offense! Which is all very fuuny and contemptible, and very true! ITohably legal etiquette has Its uses. Just as (ha macs and the sceptre and the robe of state hav theirs. Hut there is this difference. The cbiranery and complications of legal reslrlctlons and legal ceremonies have interfered consider ably with the uses of the law, whilu multiplying its abuses a hundredfold. The farce of drawing up "legal" doc-- umenla shows a mere Idiotic repetition of useless expressions so that (he clerk and the scrivener may earn a few extra and the client me mulcted In bills of rout. Let any- one who has had a series of dealings with lawyers pause to ask himself bow much of it all was any benefit or any service. LIVES SACRIFICED TO ETIQUETTE To turn from the legal to the medical profession Is to perceive even greater danger and more serious offsets from the observance of social formality. The number of human lives sacrificed to medical etiquette Is quite as alarming Bathe number sacrifice)' to nostrums, faulty diagnosis of disease, and the treatment of ignorant s:id bigoted practitioners. No medical man will attend n case where another medical man Is In attendance, even though he kaoms that the other man Is killing his patler.t. There must first of all be a consultation between them, and then the sufferer or the anffareFi friends, must givs number oue his conge before etiquette permits number two lo do So precious hours are wasted, ailing strength overtaxed, unncces-- . to ary endurance of pain strained r. red-tap- e bust-ness- . any-thjn- breaking point, and all berause professional man dare not eay openly that another is ignorant or culpable. It he did so it would, of course, be libel being true. And libel means law, and law means proof, and of all prorablc things the disease. Its cause, or cure of any suffering Individual Is one of tin. most difficult, and also lhe most expensive. Ho one unfortunate being suffers or dies for the good of the many, and etiquette Is satisfied even it the murden-- sufferer's trlenda arc not. It Is this same medical etiquette that has lain so staunch a foe lo medical progress. Any new discovreery or Invention is so hampered byconstrictions that its merest him is demned. snd Us proved truth only permitted by observing a formula sacred to the medical college aud its noble laxly of autocrats. No aurgeon of these said can act aiitia-rata it lion t running the risk of proclaimed "quackery." ETIQUETTE JN SOCIAL LICK. Cases and instances might be multiplied to show ihu absurdity of a law which, like most unwritten laws. Is but the ninro jealously observed. Cor tal-oetiquette Its the appetite and tlo of an eagle, and all civilised mankind is Its prey. Terhspa, like that kingly bird, it has a preference for lhe human sliriep. And has not t'ari.vlv asserted that the genus Foot weighs humanilyf hceylly in the scale of Class dignifies what the mass derides. Nevertheless, the poser or oliqueiia has sWaipod front the seals of the mighty (oentilrol even the middle and loser grades of socisl lire.

The area has li s rules, and I bo kllcheu its propr idles.'

Man. sol on ever such a III lie throne of authority. Immediately begins to his power. Woman assort t hers with or without the throne. Poverty is the one and only leveller of mankind. Yet even poverty baa a code of lawa, all quaint and nbaurd, and yet ita own. The prufeaaiona are special hedgehogs of etiquette bristling with a hundred HtUe foolish dignities and prejudices. The cleric who holds a living cannot but pose an superior to thn struggling curalo. The arch, deacon condescends graciously to tha vlrar, the dean to the canon, the arch' bishop to the bishop, mid so in like manner each and all of the sacerdotal dignitaries uphold the law of sacerdotal etiquette. THE ETIQUETTE OF PRAISE Thera i one astonishing form of etiquette which seems obligatory on even those enemies of success, Press ciitlcs the etiquette of praise. Once a suitable object for such commendation has been selected, he, or she, is safe for nil time. The actor who Is notoriously falling, the aclreaa who has long since retired, the singer whose strained voice shown every year now signs of "breakdown," the author whose work Is a growing progress in puerility; one and nil of these hsve only to appear or perform or publish and forthwith they are met with the old Vgush," the old adject ivea of laudation. How much kinder and wiser would be a hint that their day is over, their isiwera a failure, their once glorious voices a more cracked lirain-worecho, and their an uninspired effort. Bui it would not be etiquette to nay such things. 8o the old favorites leer and mumble and srreecli their C in All," and the worn-ou- t. author s proses, and one and all show a pitiable and vain spectacle to a crowd which stares and laughs and then says "Were they really once so wonderful?

Ko the etiquette of polite lies has been invented to tone down such harshness, and throughout all forms and grades of social life I ho misrepresentation of the real serves a special purpose to meet a special eutL "RITA as-so- rt k them-reive- g vention.

When a man and a maid are tremof bling on the brink of a declaration almost doubts most agonising the love, Invariably assail tbe hearts of each. The man asks himself a hundred times a day whether be has the ghost of a chance with the object of his adoration and the girl wonders dumbly whether the young man to whom aha ha secret given her heart cares tor her, even a little. The more the two are in love the more rompletely baffled they are by their efforts to discern ona another sentiments. It would, indeed, seem impossible to diagnose their mutual feelings, so blind has Cupid rendered them, yet there are signs and portents that are of unfailing value in determining the state of affairs, signs that do not fall to strike the onlooker very forcibly. For it is perfectly true that the onlookers see most of the game, and particularly is it true xn kive. There Is very little consolation In the knowledge to thoso whom love has wounded with his magically tipped little arrows that they can be read like o;ien boks by their Dlends and acquaintances What they desire to do is to read one another's feelings. And yet by their instinct for reticence and their desire to hag their secret to themselves, In order Jhat the prying eyea of the outside world, shall not perceive it, they unconclously defeat their own ends and make the task of penetration a thousand time more difficult to themselves while they hoodwink no one else. That ia why a blush Is lesa significant than a scowl as a when the observant eye of the outside public, ia directed upon two suspected And thus it comes to sweethearts. pass that the girl who haa cried her eyea out at some unexpected bruaque-nes-s nay, downright rudeness from the man from whom she expects quite the opposite treatment has been rallied by her friends upon her very evident conquest: It is hard to believe that the very person who should be all soft words and sweet glances Is only cross and disagreeable, ready to take offense at any supposed slight and strangely difficult to understand when love has him in his grip. A'et so it is. True love is very shy and very stupid of behavior. The fiance in embryo has no assurance to buoy him up, and n great deal of fear, which of all elements In the making of character is most unbecoming. Disagreeahleness of manner, then, is an early sign of love, and one that is always regarded with suspicion when noticed by the family circle, at whom it Followed by Is frequently directed. an evident desire to be pleasant, to act In an nnwontedly tender and kindly way, it la a sure sign of lovfo, and, this time, love that la promising well, a young man's manner la a perfect barometer of the course of hla affections to his sisters and brothers and so that less degree, la a girl's. But girls are that naturally such clever actresses feel-inn. they are able to dissemble their tale-bear- the voice that the discerning uami should luok for one of the Suren of true love. Happy will she be if k ears are sufficiently keen to notice the subtle difference that her sweetheart makes in the tone in which he ad. dresses her to that In which he speaks to the world In general. Probably tbe quintessence of its dear delight may not tie beard more that once in all her life. That rapruroi.a experience will thrill her when he lelii her that he loves her. Then, if ahe j( responsive, her memory will store up for ever and a day the exact tones ot (hat beloved voice, and she will always associate it with the holiest moment of her life. She may be able to recall bis fare, his features, tbe color of bis eyes, the way he walked, aud bis little tricks and habits of expression; but if k.ip i aB not conjure up his voice, then all Uivq for him ha lied. This Is n sure bn. so to any, of love departed. That other the change of (be voice, to which allusion has Just been male Is as truly a sure sign of love In possession, li j, a change that no woman will have the sliahtet change of mistaking.
